Deadwood Tavern
6 S Dubuque StIowa City, IA 52240
Originally an old biker bar - bikers used to drive motorcycles through the front door. An Iowa City landmark that has remained untouched despite decades of downtown change. Pool tables, pinball machines, photo booth. Famous for spicy Bloody Marys and chili. Dog-friendly. Attracts older adults with a more mature atmosphere - rare for a college town. Longtime regulars have been coming for 40+ years.
